"Kennedy, Schumer and Biden will whip out the old "armor-piercing" ammo argument that all these rifle rounds can pierce a kevlar vest."

Which is any rifle bullet more powerful than a .22 magnum. Chances are, if it will kill a deer it will go through a vest like a hot knife through butter.

That's true, any centerfire rifle round will go through a soft vest. All deer rifles are "armor-piercing", right down to the old .30-30.

But that's not how the Kennedy crowd will present it. I could almost be a speechwriter for the gun-grabbers, they are so predictable.

"We simply have to enact common-sense legislation to get these killing machines off our streets, and the cop-killer bullets that they spray. No one needs one of these weapons of war to hunt Bambi. Our law enforcement officers are in mortal danger, outgunned by street thugs carrying these assault weapons, the weapons of choice of criminals. Imagine terrorists getting ahold of one of these AR-15s or AK-47s. We've seen what a (Muslim) teenager can do with a common shotgun in a mall. We must act now before some terrorist just strolls into a gun show and buys one of these death machines." Lather, rinse, repeat.
